Thrifty Tuesday - Vintage Finds

I haven't really had many opportunities to do much vintage hunting for the last few weeks as op shops have been closed due to Christmas and it has been raining heaps here in Ballarat.
I did get the chance to attend a market in Daylesford on the weekend and here is what I found -

Very sweet vintage fabric with cute bunnies - 2 1/2 mts for $5

Tubes and tubes of pretty vintage buttons in lots of lovely colours. Only $2 per tube......bargain.

Easter Saturday in Daylesford

What a great day!
Went to the Makers Market in Daylesford with John and two of our children today. I couldn't have asked for better weather or a lovelier setting. (I wish the same could be said for my children’s behavior) This was probably the best market I've ever been to. Definitely worth a look if you ever visit the area. The next market is on Saturday the 5th June.
I managed to control my spending. I bought a great recipe book called Homemade. This book is dedicated to the victims of the 2009 Victorian Black Saturday bushfires, and all money raised from sales is donated to the Salvation Army. If you want a copy, have a look at Lark.
The cute mushroom bookmark is from Rabbit and the Duck… how adorable is that mushroom fabric! I also loved their fabric covered journals.
I love collecting vintage buttons so I couldn't go past this tube of the sweetest green buttons.
I could have stayed longer but unfortunately the kids started turning into pumpkins so we headed home...sigh.
